I've decided to sell my C4 to make room for a different model.
Brief Overview, High-Level Info: The car comes with the original stock L98 350, which has the Bosch Tuned Port Injection system, and is mated to a THM automatic transmission. Baseline published horsepower was 230 HP with 330 lb-ft of torque. There were 39,729 corvettes built for the production year 1985. My car is 1 of 3,579 built with factory paint code '81' (Bright Red) and interior code of '152' (medium gray leather) and number 35,437 of the overall production year. This model year was the second year for the C4 and was a huge improvement over the 1984 model - there was no 1983 production car. The original option codes label can be seen in one of my pictures.
Overall Vehicle Condition: The car should considered a Condition #2 car or Excellent condition for it's age - (Condition #1 would be cars that are completely flawless cars and are the best of the best. The car should present that same as it did when it was built, flawless). Condition #2 essentially means the car could win local/regional events and shows, it may have flaws but would require a seasoned observer or judge to find. The car should represent it's era well and be of the nicest condition possible. The car still has the majority of the assembly markings on it (usually little dabs of white paint on various components) and also still has the original factory stickers in the engine bay and the Quality Control signature sticker on the driver's door. The car currently has 26,540 miles on it - it gets driven sometimes so that may go up a little by the time the car is sold, but it would not be a significant amount.
Vehicle Condition Details: There are no issues/problems/concerns with any of the body, interior, drivetrain or electronics on the car. The acrylic Targa Roof panel is still in Excellent condition, as well as all of the weather-stripping. The car presents original but has had the original Air Conditioning system upgraded to R134a in 2006 (of which, is still very nice and cold). The car has also had the tires, battery, and heater control valve changed. I don't know for certain if the brake pads have been changed since I haven't owned the car for it's entire history. Paint appears to be in above-average condition; no webbing or hairline cracks in the paint, the paint shows great for the age of car. Obviously the paint does show some slight fade because of it's age, but it's not due to neglect or abuse. The car also shows signs of use on the front bumper cover and lower air dam. The car has the original 3.5" air dam on it and as I mentioned, it shows sign of usage. Interior is as expected; minimal to no signs of wear show in the leather seats, center console dash panels. The instrument cluster works as originally designed and does not have any blacked out spots. The door thresholds have some very minor wear from climbing in and out of the car. As seen in a lot of older cars, the rear carpet shows some signs of age; some of the carpet pile fibers appear to have been vacuumed a little aggressive.
The car is kept in a climate controlled garage and is always kept clean. The car is cleaned after each use, both inside and out, which includes engine bay, wheel wells, and under-carriage.
I'm not in a hurry to sell it but I'm open to all reasonable offers; I'll be taking the car to Bloomington Gold at the end of this month so if I don't sell it by then it will have some additional miles on it.
I have the car for sale through word-of-mouth and some other listing services, if it sells I'll cancel the auction.
Shipping: Buyer is responsible for ALL shipping expense; if buyer doesn't want to deal with it, I can arrange the shipping for an upfront fee that covers all shipping expenses and my time. If you arrange shipping you need to make sure your driver is aware that this car only has a front-end curb clearance of 3".
Thanks.

The Corvette Museum sinkhole has been filled
Wed, Feb 11 2015After swallowing eight of the most prized pieces of the collection from the National Corvette Museum, the massive sinkhole from a year ago is rapidly becoming nothing but a bad memory. Based on the museum's weekly construction update, you can barely see the remnants of the 25-foot deep hole once in the floor. The Corvette Museum's Skydome was not always going to look like this. The original hope was to keep the sinkhole there as a tourist attraction. That plan eventually fell through, though, and instead it was decided five of the less-damaged Corvettes would remain unrestored. Progress has been moving fast to get the repairs done. Even a month ago, the hole was still very visible, and the construction company used remote-controlled Bobcat loaders to fill it in. Now, the museum has launched a contest to guess how many tons of stone it took to fill in the massive crater. The winner gets a print of the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil being lifted out.

Fri, Jan 14 2022This episode of the Autoblog Podcast features Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore and Associate Editor Byron Hurd. They kick off with an overview of the 2022 North American Car, Truck and Utility of the Year award winners (spoiler: Ford did well). After that, they talk about GM's electric pickup strategy and whether a premium electric pickup from Cadillac makes sense. Then, they pivot to Mitsubishi and the future of the Ralliart nameplate. Will we ever get a fun, inexpensive enthusiast car from the Japanese automaker again? Then it's on to what Byron's had in the driveway for the past couple weeks, including a 2022 Chevy Corvette and a 2022 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 Xtreme Recon. Plus, he talks about putting some new snow tires on his personal Jeep Wrangler for evaluation in Michigan winter. Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors
Mon, 04 Feb 2013As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize.
